TRAVEL

Just a few of our recent favorite items to help make Father’s Day extra special. But, most importantly, don’t forget to pick up the phone & call dad to tell him how much you love & appreciate him. That simple little act is priceless & will mean more than any gift could ever say!

New York City is always booming with great restaurants, shopping and fun activities. It’s the hustle & bustle, the people, (the shopping…that’s a given), and the excitement from sun up to sun down that makes this one of my favorite cities.

We spent more time in NY last month than we did at home. From my first few solo days with my girls, to ending the month with our FGL fam & the boys album release, last month was crazy to say the least… Crazy exciting & crazy busy.

Nestled in the Smoky Mountains is a little slice of heaven, though more famously known as Blackberry Farm. Tyler and I were lucky enough to celebrate our 1 year anniversary, hidden away in the mountains far from the distractions and busyness of our usual hectic day-to-day schedules.

From the second we arrived, everything was perfect down to every last detail, including a welcome package for Harley, a personal golf cart to explore the property, our favorite cocktails, and of course an experience like none other.

Although Nashville is where I call home, there will always be a little piece of my heart that belongs to Cali! I don’t get to LA as often as I’d like, but when I do, I always make it a point to stop at a few of my favorite restaurants and shops during my often very short stay. So with my most recent girls trip, I thought I’d share with you guys a few of my most recent faves from the west coast!

This white bomber jacket makes it in my suitcase each time we pack up and has been worth every penny. I am the worst when it comes to packing and this little number makes my life so much easier because it goes with EVERYTHING! Not to mention, it’s perfect for those summer nights when all you need is a light jacket.

It’s now time to celebrate all of the dads out there! Father’s Day will be here before you know it and it’s time to show the dads just how special they are to us. No matter if it’s a biological dad, step-dad or someone in your life you look up to as a father figure, it’s time we show the men in our lives some love!

Tyler and I have become pros when it comes to flying. Having the right travel essentials adds ease, and that little bit of added comfort. As most of you well know, flying takes a major toll on your body. Since most of our lives are spent on planes, we thought we would share some of our tips, tricks and favorite travel accessories that we’ve picked up along the way.

Our first stop in Australia was Sydney, and it was nothing short of extraordinary. We stayed at the Park Hyatt Hotel, but this was not your average Hyatt. It sits directly on a peninsula on the Sydney Harbour overlooking the Opera House. We had a 360 view that was incredible, and if you ever plan to visit Sydney, this is the place to stay. The rooms were great, but it was the modern rooftop pool that topped it all off for us, and was the perfect way to spend an afternoon after our morning bridge climb.
